Who are you and where are you from?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>I&#8217;m Diamond a 23 years old Chilean girl who loves cosplay.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>2. How did you discover cosplay?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Well, In 2010 I went to a convention and I saw many guys dressed as Pokemons, Vocaloid characters, etc&#8230; and I thought : WHAT?\u00a0&#8230; then a friend of mine told me what cosplays are and I liked it! ! &#8230;. so since then I started to make my costumes.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/interview-with-diamond-cosplay\/katrina\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-15783\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15783\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Katrina-e1367841163760.jpg?resize=660%2C923\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"923\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Katrina.jpg?w=660&amp;ssl=1 660w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Katrina.jpg?resize=214%2C300&amp;ssl=1 214w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Katrina.jpg?resize=643%2C900&amp;ssl=1 643w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>3. I really love your version of Kratos, what made you choose that character and how did the idea come about?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Kratos is my favorite videogame character. His attitude and the way he fight against the gods is amazing! &#8230; also the videogame is incredible!. I tried to get a sophisticated but strong view of a female Kratos and I think that I got it &#8230;. people like it!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>4. I notice you cosplay a lot of video game characters, what other genres do you cosplay?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Just videogames, because most of the times I just see anime cosplayers, and people forgot that exits a lot of genres and you can make a costume related to comics, series, etc&#8230;. but I have a couple of anime characters in my cosplay book.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Well, since you like video games so much, which is your favorite video game and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p><strong>hmmm&#8230; favorite video game&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><strong>\u00a0I would say that Street Fighter.

Which way do you enjoy showing your costumes the most, conventions or photo-shoots?<\/strong><\/div>\n<p><strong>Basically in conventions, but many photographers invite me to photo shoots. One of my spoiled photographer is Esteban Chac\u00f3n, he makes a GREAT job&#8230; you can visit his webpage : <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teamjapan.cl\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">www.teamjapan.cl\/<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>7. What other hobbies do you have besides cosplay?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Hmmm&#8230; I like to go out with my friends of MKo (Chilean cosplay group of Mortal Kombat), have fun with my pets (animal lover &lt;3) and share with my family every weekend :)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>8. What are your plans for the future?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Maybe, grow up as a cosplayer and show to other countries that in Chile we have many cool cosplayers&#8230; and create a cosplay store with different accessories, wigs, costumes or tutorials.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>9.
